The Stress Analysis of Connecting Rod using ANSYS project focuses on evaluating the mechanical strength, stress distribution, and deformation behavior of a connecting rod under engine operating loads. Using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in ANSYS, the study identifies high-stress regions, optimizes geometry, and suggests material improvements. This project is vital for enhancing durability, reducing weight, and preventing premature failures in automotive and industrial engines.

Parts Used:

1. Connecting Rod – CAD model designed in SolidWorks, CATIA, or Creo.
2. Big End Bearing – Connects to the crankshaft.
3. Small End Bearing – Connects to the piston pin.
4. Material Specifications – Steel alloys, aluminum alloys, or titanium.
5. ANSYS Software – For static and fatigue stress simulation.
6. Meshing Tools – For accurate geometry representation.
7. Boundary Conditions – Load, constraints, and cyclic forces applied in simulation.
